From January 2024, the Netherlands’ four technical universities are pooling their knowledge and expertise in the field of the history of technology in the 4TU centre History of Technology.
The new centre aims to provide students, engineers and the wider audience with a historical awareness of the role that technology and engineers played in societal transitions in the past two centuries, as well as to develop working methods that makes such knowledge actionable today.
EHL is one of the constituent groups in the new centre, and EHL’s Erik van der Vleuten and Jan Korsten act as its scientific director and managing director, respectively.
